Variable complexity modeling of postbuckled stiffeners for delamination initiation
Delamination at the free edge is analyzed as a mode of failure for uniaxial compression of postbuckled structural components. Analyses are performed for I-section stiffeners and for a dropped-ply laminate, all of which failed due to free edge delamination in earlier experimental studies. These speci...
